Simple operation

  • Push the electronic child safety lock button.

Operation

  • Push the electronic child safety lock button.

TIP

  • If you push the electronic child safety lock switch and the indicator appears, rear passengers cannot open the rear door from inside the vehicle.

  • Safe Exit Assist (SEA) does not automatically activate the electronic child safety lock system. If your vehicle is equipped with the Electronic child safety lock, the child-protector rear door locks, which are manually operated, are not provided.

  • If 3 minutes passes after the ENGINE START/STOP button is pressed to the OFF or ACC position, the indicator on the button turns off, and the driver cannot turn off electronic child safety lock by pressing the button. To turn off the function, press the ENGINE START/STOP button to the ON position, and then press the electronic child safety lock button.

WARNING

  • If children accidentally open the rear doors while the vehicle is in motion, they could fall out and be severely injured or killed. To prevent children from opening the rear doors from the inside, the rear door safety locks should be used whenever children are in the vehicle.

  • The system does not detect every obstacle approaching the vehicle exit.

  • The driver and passenger are responsible for the accident occurred while exiting the vehicle. Always check the surrounding before you exit the vehicle.

CAUTION

The warning message will be displayed on the cluster if the electronic child safety lock is not operating properly.

If this occurs, have the system checked by a professional workshop. Kia recommends visiting an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
